*Bot lists must meet these minimum requirements to be considered a bot list.*

---


1. Your bot list must have a respectable TLD. (.tk does not count)
2. Your bot list can **NOT** be hosted on glitch.
3. Your bot list should not display all the listed bots on the front page.
4. Your bot list must be usable. No broken links/buttons.
5. Your bot list must have consistent uptime. (Minor downtime for fixing a problem is fine)


Your bot list...
1. must have a respectable TLD.

Could we just make this point that it must have its own custom domain with a respectable (paid) TLD?

That covers the glitch (etc) subdomain point and the tk point?

Not everyone is aware that a .tk is not seen as a "respectable" domain.
That paid part could clear it up but I still think mentioning the .tk part should stay.

There are many other free TLDs alike to tk. I don’t believe we should list tk as then users may cite that other free TLDs aren’t listed as a defence for using them.

- .tk TLDs are not allowed.
- No subdomains used from non-botlists/free hosting (e.g. Glitch.me)
2. can **NOT** be hosted on glitch.

I don't have experience with doing that through github and honestly won't load it on my PC (Desktop) to do this with git.

3. should not display all the listed bots on the front page.
4. must be usable. No broken links/buttons.
- It should work on all commonly used browsers (Chrome, Opera and yes even Edge)
5. must have consistent uptime.
- Minor downtime due to fixes or maintenance are ok.

I don’t think this is needed.

6. should have an easy to understand API-Documentation, if an API is available.
7. can **NOT** be a clone of an already existing (open source) bot list.

Incorrect. Let’s start a new issue or PR to discuss this further. Remove from this one :)

What is incorrect?
Having a (one on one) clone is imo not a good way to make a bot list since you basically only mirror the original.

Create a separate issue or PR to discuss this further and remove it from here. We allow clones in some situations.
